Fine engine, junior Evo looks, 4x4 traction, storming cross-country pace, decent ride.
Unresolved SST gearbox, expensive to run, cheap-feeling interior, no conventional manual option.
Capable, slightly oddball all-wheel-drive alternative to a more conventional hot hatch.
The residual values for the Lancer range from 41% to 43%, with the Evo returning around 46%.
As the Sportback Ralliart falls between these two models, we think the residuals will do the same, so expect to get around 43-45% of its value back after three years and 36,000 miles.
Not a bad result, but one that is by far eclipsed by the Volkswagen Golf GTI that has historically lead the hot hatch class for losing the least amount of money. Come resale and owners of the GTI can expect to claw back as much as 52% of what they paid for the Golf new.
